Pic! Major League DJ Gets A Tattoo Dedicated To His Love For Amapiano. South African producer and deejay duo Major League DJz are some of the country’s established artists who have pivoted to the popular amapiano sound. They have switched from their regular sound to the now-famous genre, amapiano.
Major League DJz took to social media to show how deep their love for amapiano goes. The duo has done an amazing job when t comes to introducing amapiano to a wider audience. One half of the duo tattoed ‘Piano to the world’ on his wrist.
While the twins admit to have taken a knock like many event organisers, they are not staying down. “To have that income not coming in has been tough. Sure we have done online stuff, but it’s not as much money as the festivals would have done,” Bandile admits.
To combat for the disruption caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, they have started a YouTube web-series Amapiano Live Balcony Mix Africa that sees them performing live sets. Since its inception last year, the web-series has featured guest appearances by Kabza De Small, Foalistic, Busta 929, Boohle, and Mr JazziQ.
“That has been a sensation for us and it got a lot of sponsors involved. With the second wave, we are not opening it to other artists in the amapiano space,” Bandile said. “The web series is very big internationally. YouTube is a great platform that can show you how to do things differently,” Banele added.
